Comments Thread For: Bellew Explains When He Realized Wilder Was Way Too Big

[Boksfan]

Wilder met Bellew at night, that's when Tony realised he's way too big.

[Combat Talk Radio]

"We slapped hands, I hugged him and he hugged me, and his arm literally wrapped around my whole body... It was as though his arm had tickled his chin and at that moment I knew this is never happening... I am never going anywhere near you.

"Why should I put myself in danger. Every fight is dangerous as it is, but I'm not going to give people unnecessary advantages."

"Deontay, I'm ducking you. No, I'm telling you, I'm ducking you. Period. I'm afraid."

was tyson not in his prime vs douglas when he lost?

No, that was past Kevin Rooney era.

If I was in his position I would actually avoid Anthony Joshua and face Wilder, there's less risks in facing chicken legs Wilder who only relies on overly agressive unorganized power , swinging like a crackhead... With Joshua it's not only power but the man knows how to use it effectively and can box very well

if I was in his position, I would do exactly what he is doing

look for a money-fight that does not involve Joshua/Wilder, and then slink back to cruiser

Haye and Fury are basically it

as for Joshua being safer than Wilder..... Joshua hurts - and maybe drops - his opponent, before the referee steps in..... Wilder removes them from their senses, and after waking up they watch the fight to find out who won

Bellew should stay away from both of them

It's easier to knock out cold tomato cans just like deontay wilder is, he hasn't stopped an elite heavyweight, it only matters when you do it to top fighters

[2fast2strong]

This is true but I think there is no denying Wilder has one punch, lights out power, speed and a wild unorthodox delivery.
To me that makes him a more dangerous fighter than AJ

"Why should I put myself in danger "...smart man. Smart move.

There would have been only ONE outcome....YOU convulsing on the canvas..separated from your senses..

Very smart and honest man.

[Drebin Frank]

Gotta give him credit for being honest

Tony seems to switch between being absolutely bat ***** crazy and presenting as quite open and articulate

I view pre jail Tyson as prime Tyson.
And Tyson with cus d Amato was even better

[suffolkbull3]

No, that was past Kevin Rooney era.
